Community Tasting Note

NostraBacchus Likes this wine:

Friday, October 9, 2020 - This was a great addition to our amazing Barolo tasting. I hold a very special place in my heart for the Rinaldi wines and truly love the style. While some of the wines in the 90ies are a little inconsistent, when they are on they are really great.
This bottle showed a little bit advanced, but the house style was still shining through. Notes of loveage, a touch of oxidation, but also dark and red berries, some tar, also some crushed dried flowers and dried fruit. It‘s medium+ bodied, with medium-high acidity and medium-high tannin that is super silky. Good length. A very pretty Cannubi San Lorenzo-Ravera that might have been just a touch too advanced to be truly great. Still a privilege to taste it.
